The Hindi-language film tells the true story of the Chaudhury family, narrated by their deceased teenaged daughter, Aisha, played by Zaira Wasim. “It was a really hard juxtaposition of real life for me,” Chopra Jones told Reuters. “Especially because I was getting married and at the same time this film deals with loss, loss of a child, which is such an unnatural way of being.”
The real-life Aisha Chaudhury died on Jan. 24, 2015, at 18, the day after her book, “My Little Epiphanies,” was published. “The Sky is Pink” ends with photographs and video clips of the real Chaudhury family living the moments depicted in the film, including a TEDx talk Aisha gave in India in 2014.
